Gee, I can't imagine why that could be.
"Why don't you like our copilot features?" -Microshit-
Oh, I can think of a few reasons.
You know it's bad when even I switch to linux. I don't understand linux. I literally back up my entire hard drive everytime I attempt to do ANYTHING. Because I WILL screw up my whole system to the point it won't boot. I've done it many times over the coarse of the past year.
Then I gotta spend a whole day waiting for things to restore from backup. And then whatever I WAD trying to do, still isn't done.
That has been my experience using linux this past year.
But Windows 11? No.
Idk wtf you guys are doing.
Even my parents haven't screwed up the Linux Mint I set up for them to use. I'm super curious what in the world breaks it so bad that it doesnt boot.
It's definitively something along the lines of "knows just enough to be dangerous"
Like, sure, I've also broken my Linux system, but I'm deliberately running distros like arch and doing things that the average user would never do, like, say, messing with the bootloader.
If you just install something like bazzite or mint, and use it like a normal user would, the risk for something breaking should be really low
